Subject: 230'th update on fly longevity experiments

     This is the 230'th update of my fly longevity experiments. Average
 temperature was 24.3 C during this run. Estimated maximal longevity using
 the formula (363 - T*11.2) is 91 days.
     Some previous winners are retested in this run. Q-GEL CoQ10 15 mg,
 fumaric acid, Jiao Dasheen starch 2 tsp, and silver water offered a
 marginal advantage. However rice was a dud this time.
